[mr-marty-martin]

have campag got an electric groupie on test this year at le tour ???

i think cofidis had one a year or 2 ago


also was it campag who first came up with the whole electric thing and shimano jumped on the band waggon???

Electronic, not electric.

Not sure if it is being tested at the Tour - we'll have to wait for a BR tech report. It was seen in March in Belgium.

Mavic had an electronic groupset (Zap/Mektronic) back in the early 90s.

Was nobody riding Di12 at the Giro?

 

[mr-marty-martin]

there riding it at the tour aswell, im onabout the campag tho...

Chuffy may be making a joke suggesting that Campag's electronic system will be 12 speed.

I didn't know Campagnolo made one.

I though both Rabobank and Columbia were using Di2 but it seems to be down to the riders

yeah campag had cofidis testing them in 08 or 07 ( ive been reading up )

although i dont think they were wireless, gave abit of a messy look if you ask me...

No, Chuffy just hadn't read the OP correctly...
